One Dollar Fares On Megabus Available Now — But Hurry

T he new schedule was just released by Megabus in the United States — and fares for as low as one dollar are still available as of “press time” for this article through Tuesday, September 8, 2015; but those fares tend to go fast.

If you purchase a one dollar return fare — that is, round-trip — it will cost you a minimum of five dollars. The booking fee and the facilities fee each cost $1.50; so at three dollars, the fees cost more than the entire trip.
